I accidentally updated my email site password to the wrong one. Previously, I had the correct one saved in Mozilla, but the wrong one were overwritten and I lost access to my email account. Is it possible to recover the password from before it was overwritten with a new one? I have no other way to get to my email, it was created long time ago and I had no backup email connected to it. You are my only hope to recover it- I checked all other options. Please help my case. Thank you for your time dear support grand master.

Rafał, sometimes missing passwords can be retrieved using the logins-backup.json file in the Profile folder on the hard drive. Although this would need to be done sooner rather than later.

If you do not know where your Profile folder is, see here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data

To attempt password recovery:

  1. open your Profile folder on the hard drive
  2. close Firefox if it is running
  3. move logins.json to a backup folder
  4. copy logins-backup.json to a backup folder
  5. in the profile folder, rename logins-backup.json to logins.json
  6. restart Firefox

If this doesn't work then you can always exit Firefox and then restore the original two files.
